COLD DARK ROOM

[Tidgy's Dad]

good mornooning you wonderful lot
it's payday wooohooo!!!
I'm going to motivate my co worker today with beer... will take him for a few jars IF we kill it today
I'm out to prove a point and going in an hour early to get a head start as I know whats ahead. the harder I'm pushed the harder I fight back... its tartan spartan time!!! (warface)

hope everyone has a great day and goals are achieved... let's go show the world how awesome we all are

WIBBLE

Good afternoon, you wonderful John.
Not payday today, but because wifey is behind on hours worked this month, she has to do two students and i get the day off!
Again.
Beer is considered by some to be a better motivator even than cheese.
I think i'll be showing the inside of my house how awesome i am today, so only wifey and Tidgy will know.

I recommend the Adam's enclosure questions from about 36 hours ago to cheer you up

Start about here (page 2179)

That was pretty funny.
And it got your mum laughing!
Good afternoon, Linda.

Nice to hear from you, Ewa.
Still no rain here.
The world news is always depressing, but makes me very grateful for what i have. Best not to overthink it, though one does feel for all these poor people.
I like nightmares, it's like watching a good horror film.
Therefore, I almost never get them.

No rain here either. It does not rain here till October. i don't like rain, but at the same time we need it here: Jordan's REAL ISSUE is water, especially with the population rising each and every day.

You like nightmares, Adam?! Did you read my post as fr as sleep and "sweet dreams" are concerned?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Hello everyone, hope you're all ok.
Very nice day here-sunny but not humid. It's been very humid the last couple of days and 31 degrees. Spuds been loving it outside, so has Monty.

As for me, I have been trying to complete all the challenges in Ricky Dillon's book. They get very hard and one of them is to propose to a stranger lol. As soon as my friends are back from holiday we will get to work with completing them.

Afternoon, Spud's Mum.
Afternoon, Spud.
Afternoon, Monty.
Lovely weather and on your holidays, too! Most unusual.
Why not go on to the Introductions forum here and propose to "New Tortoise Owner From California", or something ?
That'll make 'em feel welcome.

Here I am in TCDR at 1:44 am pct-USA. I've a pre-job interview tomorrow/ today. 1hr drive. Eat, drink very strong coffee, smoke two cigs. , read in the porcelain office , shave and shower. Wish me luck getting out of here on time. I'm leaving 30 minutes early from here for driving confusions that are bound to happen. Again wish me luck. I'll let ya'll know when I get there.

Best of luck, Ken.
Knock 'em dead!
Always wise to leave early.
Very best of luck,again, will be thinking of you.

I started feeding my Redfoot more fruit about 12 months ago to about 40%. (A tip I got from someone) And it seems to me that it has accelerated their growth and weight. Not meaning that they are fat. Just extra big now. I wish I had measured their growth up to this point because it looks like the rate has at least doubled. I may start a thread about it.

Morning, Ed.
You should.
Very intriguing.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Nasty thunderstorms around here this morning.
The tortoises love it.
The dog refuses to go outside. So, I put down pee pee pads.

Tidgy goes crazy in thunderstorms, races about and can't sleep. I have to stay up with the poor girl until it's blown over.

Ouchy!
Indeed.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Thanks ya'll. I'm not worried about the drive, my Vicky treats my very well for an 18 yr. old. What I'm slightly concerned about is the waking up and acting normal, (LOL) for the interview. Figuring I'll remove my cowboy hat when getting out of my car. View attachment 184760

Twould be for the best.
I'm not too hot on acting normal, either.
When I went to sort out some serious financial business in Spain recently, I forgot to take off my Scottish hat.

And then it's hard for people to take one seriously.
wifey and John never warned me.
But we had all had a couple of sherbets.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I would love every day to be Saturday!!!
Hi Ed!

Good afternoon, Lyn.
I just had to check to see what day it actually was!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Hi Adam, Wifey and Tidgy.

I'm afraid my sleep was anything but "ahlam ladida." In fact it was full of nightmares!

Sorry that you don't like nightmares.
I was just saying in a post how much i like them.
Afternoon, Gillian.
Afternoon, Oli.

Oh no you aren't. You're Tidgy's Dad and Oli's father-in-law.

How's the weather back there? The heat wave insists on remaining in Jordan; seems to enjoy it here. Poor Oli is SO restless.

Truly the LAST of the overly engineered and well built American cars.
And the geniuses at Ford discontinued it.

41°C here at the moment, hotter on the terrace, no breeze, lovely.
But a possible thunderstorm this evening.

It looks remarkably like my X-mother in law.
